Open Mic Guidelines

This is an acoustic Open Mic for musicians only. We do not feature poetry, comedy or karaoke. We discourage the use of pre-recorded backing tracks of any sort. Our audience wants to hear LIVE MUSIC ONLY.

We provide microphones and direct inputs for acoustic instruments. If you would like to use electric guitar, bass or keyboards please bring a small amplifier. Due to volume limitations, we cannot have drum sets. Hand percussion is OK.

You may sign up for ONE 10 MINUTE SLOT PER WEEK fpr the current week. Your time includes set-up time, so we encourage you to tune your instrument before you take the stage. If you have electronic gear please set it up ahead of time.

Please show up 30 minutes before your scheduled time. Time slots are approximate. We appreciate your flexibility. In general, you should have enough time to play two full songs with a little banter in between. Depending on how many people show up you may get extra time.
